Chapter 534: Safeguards
Pan Cairen's death was such an insignificant matter, and Feng Shanggong didn't take it to heart.
"There is one more thing," the little palace maid remembered: "The second princess sent a post, saying that the princess was invited to enjoy the flowers." ”
"Which day?"
"It looks like the day after tomorrow."
Feng Shanggong asked again: "Did the fourth princess invite us together?" ”
The little palace maid hesitated: "This, the slave maid doesn't know, I think it should be invited together." ”
Feng Shanggong also felt that he was asking too much.
I'm afraid that the fourth princess is the guest of honor that people want to invite, and Lu Jingxuan also sent a poster, but it was only incidental. If you don't send it, I'm afraid that people will gossip, saying that she favors one over the other, and that she is a sister but does things unfairly.
Anyway, if you send it, your own princess may not go.
Feng Shanggong felt that she was still good at persuading the fifth princess, and there should still be entertainment.
As a result, Feng Shanggong had just entered the apse, and he saw Ke Qing leading a few palace maids and coming out with a handful of new clothes. As soon as they saw Feng Shanggong, the little palace maids greeted each other
Keqing handed the clothes in her hand to Yuru and instructed her: "Put it away carefully, don't fall dusty, and don't crumple it." He freed his hand and helped Feng Shanggong: "Why did Aunt Feng come over?" How are you feeling better today? ”
"Okay, much better. I got up and walked a few steps, and I didn't feel too tired. Feng Shanggong asked, "Is the princess going out?" ”
Otherwise, how could I have tried on such a set of clothes?
Ke Qing helped Feng Shanggong sit down: "I am preparing for the princess to go to the second princess's mansion the day after tomorrow to wear it, and the princess tried on all the newly made clothes and chose a set." ”
The fifth princess heard their voices and asked, "Aunt Feng is here?" Please come in. ”
Feng Shanggong was still a little surprised.
She originally thought that it would take some words to persuade the fifth princess to go out, but she didn't expect that the fifth princess would even pick out the clothes to enjoy the flowers.
Keqing helped Feng Shanggong around the screen, Liu Yu was sitting in front of the dressing table, and Lu Cui was combing her hair.
On the shelf next to the dressing table is a new set of clothes, and the light beige skirt is embroidered with blooming peach blossoms, which is very pleasing to the eye.
Feng Shanggong recognized this set of clothes very much.
The fifth princess is the best years of the girl's family's life, and it was time to dress up. If you don't dress up now, you will regret it when the years have passed in the future.
Liu Yu turned his head sideways and smiled slightly: "Quickly move a chair for Aunt Feng." ”
Feng Shanggong thanked him with a smile, and was very careful when he sitted. She is not in good health this year, and her legs hurt, which is a problem that fell when she was young, and there is no good way. The waist flashed once, and he was sick again a while ago, and he has not stopped taking medicine until today.
Although it was not a serious illness, Feng Shanggong had never felt so clearly that she was getting old.
Aging comes so fast, so silently, no one can resist it.
"Is the princess going to comb her hair in a bun when she goes to enjoy the flowers?"
Lu Cui smiled and asked, "Aunt Feng looks at it like this, is it okay?" ”
Feng Shanggong nodded: "Yes, it is both generous and extravagant, and it will not be too complicated." This set of clothes is also good, and it matches the princess very well, but I don't know what clothes the fourth princess plans to wear that day, if the choice is heavy, it is not good. ”
Ke Qing was reminded of this stubble when Feng Shanggong said it: "What my aunt said is that it would not be appropriate if she wore the same clothes as the fourth princess." Why don't you ask the slave to inquire about what the fourth princess plans to wear that day? ”
Lu Cui scattered her hair for Liu Yu again, and the face of the person reflected in the bronze mirror was delicate, her hair was half scattered, and her eyebrows were curved and delicate, but her lips were lighter, and she looked a little pale, like a somewhat faded and yellowed lady painting.
"It's the same whether you inquire or not, you don't have to spend more effort." Liu Yu motioned for Lucui to step back, but Keqing went over and continued to comb her hair.
"The people in the Needlework Bureau are obedient, the autumn clothes sent to Lu Jingxuan and the ones sent to Anhe Palace will definitely not be the same, I just want to collide with the fourth sister."
She spoke of this in a relaxed tone, but Keqing and Feng Shanggong couldn't help but feel a little sad when they heard it.
Yes, which one of the palace people doesn't understand? Anhe Palace needs to be held and respected, and they are just dealing with errands here, all according to the routine, no more, no less, no big fault, but there is no extra flattery.
Feng Shanggong was very dissatisfied because the fifth princess hastily decided on a lifelong event, and also chose Tian Lin as a concubine.
But now she somewhat understands the thoughts of the fifth princess.
She wants to get married earlier, and after leaving the palace, she can be the master of the princess's mansion, and she doesn't have to look at people's eyes everywhere like now, and endure it again and again.
Besides, if Tian Lin is not chosen, depending on the emperor's indifference to the princess, he may not choose any outstanding talent for her to be a concubine.
Tian Lin has no family background, but the princess herself is the proud daughter of the sky, no matter how prominent her in-laws are, can she still be prominent over her mother's family? The important thing is that the princess chooses the person herself, and it is important that the princess likes it, so that she can live a comfortable life in the future. If the emperor is allowed to decide, he will end up with a person who is not in love with him for the rest of his life, then it will be really uncomfortable.
They will not be in the palace at this time next year, and life will surely be better than now.
"The day after tomorrow, the princess will go to the banquet, maybe she can spare half a day to go to the princess's mansion to have a look. I don't know how those people are repairing, but don't have bad intentions to cut corners. The house is not as good as the side one, but it must be strong and tidy. ”
Liu Yu is not worried about this.
"It was rectified a few days ago, and they didn't dare to do anything at this time, no matter how much they love money, they have to spend it."
If there was no trouble before, then these people would definitely have no scruples, shoddy, and stealing beams for pillars. Liu Yu tried to offend them once, it was worth it, after all, this princess's mansion was her future territory, and the dowry was like this for the rest of her life, and she got the benefits, not a loss.
Feng Shanggong couldn't follow her out of the palace to see the princess's mansion, she had only seen the pattern before-but the pattern was a pattern, and she couldn't really imagine what the princess's mansion was like with the pattern.
The fifth princess had said before that there was a small courtyard in the northwest corner of the princess's mansion that was very quiet, and when the time came, it would be the best place for Feng Shanggong to live.
Feng Shanggong would not fail to hear the meaning of these words.
The fifth princess promised to give her a pension and send her to the end.
Others were envious of Feng Shanggong. The people who are serving in the palace, no matter how beautiful they look now, have hidden worries in their hearts - they are worried that they will not settle down when they are old, and the evening will be bleak. The palace people and the Shang palace are better, and the eunuchs are most worried about this, so they are also most concerned about money, and it seems that if they grab more money in their hands, they will have security in the future.
